Make It a Weekend
Some couples start with a day-use wedding and keep things simple, and that works beautifully here.
Others choose to reserve the full property for the weekend and invite their closest people to stay on-site.
We set aside a limited number of accommodations including cabins, rooms in the Teacherage, and a few simple camping spots. You can offer these to your guests through a shared invitation, and any bookings go toward reducing your overall cost.
It keeps everything centralized, ensures the experience feels shared, and gives everyone time to settle in and be part of the weekend.
It’s a slower, more connected way to celebrate, and often ends up being people’s favorite part.
